Red Sea Global, the developer behind The Red Sea and Amaala destinations in Saudi Arabia, has introduced an innovative robot to ensure the area’s stunning beaches remain free from waste and debris.

This cutting-edge electric robot has been designed to not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the sandy shores but also to combat the persistent issue of plastic pollution and other forms of waste.

The robot’s exceptional maneuverability enables it to navigate effortlessly around obstacles such as rocks and beach furniture. The machine also boasts an impressive 3,000 square meters of coverage within just one hour.

This newly introduced robot will commence operations at the Red Sea destination, playing a pivotal role in preserving the natural beauty of this world-class location and its exquisite resorts. This achievement underscores Red Sea Global’s dedication to safeguarding its beaches for visitors while also ensuring that the resort’s opulent travel experiences are in line with sustainable environmental practices.
